Search Results: what is sexual tension

so my co worker at work is always kinda looking at me and we just look at each other a lot and I almost feel the sexual tension and I feel like we're always aware of each other. We're always joking around with each other, and sometimes I'll catch him staring at me almost intensely. I'm really digging him, but now im starting to think that maybe it's all in my head because he never actually makes any moves. He does nice things like helping me carry heavy things and it seems like he kinda waits for me when were leaving work, and he always asks if i want to hang out. The first time we hung out, we were with another male coworker so I thought that maybe that was why he didn't make any moves. But then in the weekend he invited me to hang out and it was just the two of us, I thought for sure since we were alone ( not really alone since we went to the zoo and then the movies) he would make a move, but even then he never tried anything, even when we were alone in his car. I really like him but I'm not sure that he likes me back in a romantic way, since other than staring, he doesn't give off any real hints. I know some people will tell me to make the first move instead, but I'm just so shy that I can't really bring myself to do something bold, especially since we work together. Should I just ask him straight up if he likes me? I'm kind of scared of that since we work together, I just don't want it to become an awkward situation at work if he doesn't like me in a romantic way. Another thing I'd like to add is that he's moving to Colorado in April so then I won' be seeing him anymore ( I live in Maryland) but I don't think that should stop us from pursuing things honestly.
